What is the talkingbowl?

The talkingbowl is my version of the talkingstick. I hold it every time I post in my blog or anywhere else on this site. I allways look at what something can represent, I consider the symbology behind pretty much everything. I choose a bowl because to me a represents a femeninity (is that a word? I might have made that up!) that a stick simply doesn't have.

Following is a little list of people who have joined me here and have held the bowl.
